Cultural characteristics of Digital Ecosystem Product Teams and Operational Efficiency
The purpose of this article is to analyze and evaluate the cultural characteristics of the digital ecosystem product teams leaders and operational efficiency. Using binary choice models (the main conclusions were made on the basis of logit regressions), has been found a significant negative relationship between the probability of achieving business goals by a team and the leader's attitude to the distance of power and uncertainty. Power of distance and aversion of uncertainty likewise affect the probability of a team falling within the planned spending budget. In addition, a positive relationship has been found between goal fulfillment and a manager's view on collectivism. Thus, the partial effectiveness of using the G. Hofstede classification for modeling the operational efficiency of digital ecosystems and the selection of team leaders is proved. The sample includes 101 observations from the team leader's answers on G. Hofstede classification indicators. The questionnaire consists of Hofstede's indicators description and grade from 1 till 10 to assess influence of indicators in analyzing teams.

В статье предлагается теоретическая рамка анализа научной элиты, исходящая из понимания производства знания как динамической структуры, формируемой внутренними противоречиями. Научная элита рассматривается не как совокупность выдающихся исследователей, а как структурный эффект производства знания — позиция в пространстве науки, концентрирующая максимальный объем научного капитала и задающая смысловой горизонт для всех агентов. Пространство науки трактуется как многомерное ...

The article proposes a syntagmatic analysis of three historically constituted regimes for working with the future: linear determination, statistical branching, and loop reconfiguration. A syntagm is understood as an event-operation that exists only in its performance and simultaneously binds material, semiotic, and pragmatic registers. The analysis proceeds not as an intellectual history but as an ...

The impact of state subsidies on Russia's post-Soviet dairy output remains controversial; this study provides an empirical analysis of that relationship. Using an unbalanced panel dataset of 123 dairy enterprises in the Leningrad Region spanning the period from 2010 to 2023, we employ stochastic frontier analysis to assess these relationships. The results indicate that subsidies ...

The paper is the first attempt in the Russian literature to assess returns to platform employment in the Russian labor market. The theory offers no clear predictions regarding its impact on workers’ earnings: there might be both a premium and a penalty.

Individualism–collectivism (I-C), the most widely researched cultural dimension, is often equated with Hofstede’s pioneering nation scores. Concerns are growing about these scores’ validity, but subsequent research has not produced a widely accepted alternative. Here, we offer a refined theoretical conceptualization of I-C, we systematically reevaluate the validity of Hofstede’s I-C scores, and we report the ...

Numerous studies focus on the tightness–looseness (TL) dimension of national culture, reporting important implications for business and management. However, the main TL measure has generated a number of theoretical and empirical concerns. It likely reflects unfounded national auto-stereotypes, the conceptual boundary between TL and individualism–collectivism (IC) is blurred, respondents in different societies have different TL-related ...

Contemporary theories of emotion emphasize the dual role of emotions as both personal
experiences and communicative signals during social interactions. However, the impact of
macro-level societal structures on emotional expression remains underexplored. This study
investigates the expression-experience discrepancy for self-reported emotions across nations,
focusing on how societal development relates to this discrepancy, which captures expressivity.

when there is nowhere to switch — not because alternatives are less convenient, but because the state

Within narrowly defined industries, the most productive firms produce far more than the least productive from the same inputs, and this dispersion widens in downturns. We build a tractable representative-agent model in which financial frictions—adverse selection and moral hazard—make firms sort endogenously into lenders, strategic defaulters, and producers. As credit conditions vary, the resulting misallocation ...
